A competitive study in the fertility of Trifolium pratense L. Select 1 variety in relation to the culture system

Abstract

The importance of red clover as forage crop is well known by now. A great attention is payed, in various countries, to the study of those factors which influence the seed-set of this plant. The present work deals with one of the factors, namely the influence of culture system on seed-set. In a comparative study we have tested the seed-set capacity of "Select-1" variety of red clover (4) in relation to the culture system (out distanced and common system), and the year of harvest of the seed producers - during the first or second year of vegetation.
